Flashing Glow Plug Light and Car won't start

Followers

8 November, 201312 yr

Hi Had to use Skoda Assist for the first time yesterday, whilst on on a site for work went to set off home and car would not start, glowplug light was flashing and after turning car over for a while nothing. The RAC guy checked diagnostics and found a low fuel pressure issue, car then recovered to a dealer in Glasgow and I'm awaiting a diagnostic today and hopefully my car back!! Anyone else had similar problems?

can't fault the Skoda Assist system and the RAC guy was great.

Looking at my first Skoda Scala - Question about servicing

fishsoup · 23 minutes ago23 min

Hi all, I'm looking to buy my first Skoda after years of bad experiences with Ford wet belts and ongoing reliability issues. I'm planning to buy used, and my main priority is finding a car that has been properly maintained throughout its life. At the moment I'm looking at a SkodaApproved Used Scala in the UK with the following spec: 2023 registration (August 2023) 1.0 TSI petrol, 115 bhp 27,500 miles I appreciate the mileage is slightly above average for the age of the car, but I'm assumi

Cracked Headlight Casing

chur1996 · 20 August, 202520 Aug

Whilst refilling the washer fluid, I noticed hairline cracks running along the top of the right hand headlight casing. These run pretty much the full length of casing, and in places the crack goes right through so that the integrity of the unit is breached. Looking at the left hand headlight I found the same, although the cracks haven’t broken through yet. Needless to say I haven’t been involved in an accident at any point, nor am I in the habit of slamming the bonnet shut etc. Has anyone el

Hi there, my rear box has finally given up the ghost so I'm looking for a half decent replacement. I don't want to fork out for a genuine OEM one as the seem quite pricey. In the past I've bought exhaust parts from a manufacturer beginning with a K and found them to be really poor. A mate of my son works in their technical department and he says he wouldn't use them. So if anyone has any suggestions of makes and suppliers they've found to be good quality I'd love to know. Thanks in advance.

Factory fitted electric towbar is not releasing after a long time not using

Factory fitted electric towbar is not releasing after a long time not using

candasm · 37 minutes ago37 min

Hi Everyone, I have a Factory fitted electric Tow bar. Last time I use, it was 5 years ago I believe. I tried to use it Today no chance not releasing. It has a green light always but whenever I pull it out light changes to red blinking and tow bar is not releasing. I used some wd-40 and rust cleaner but still result didn't' change. I also tried to pull out the tow bar with bare hand or hit the mechanism with a wood or hammer(kindly), still no chance. Anyone faced the same issue?

vRS 4.5 annoyances (and birds!)

Guest · 30 April30 Apr

Hi all, I've had my mk4.5 Octavia vRS for almost 3 weeks and while I find it to be a great car overall, there's some things that are a bit annoying. Lane assist: I understand what it's trying to do but the implementation seems flawed so it's a good thing it's easy to switch off. I had forgotten to turn it off today though and while driving down a road which is wide enough for two cars but only if you stick to the edge of the road, the lane assist kept trying to push me closer to the centre.
